rose above the heads of the Confederates and
poured deadly fire into them. The Federal gun
boats in the river aided the artillery in the hills,
and the Confederates were driven back with
slaughter and confusion. Three desperate as
saults were made upon the hills in vain. With
the darkness the broken Confederates drew off
and gave up the fight The day was decided by
the tiers of Federal artillery among the hills
Once more, July 2, McClelan's generals be-

for the third time prevented Mcdowell from
joining the army of the Potomac.
1t is to be noted that Secretary Stanton
only, of all the Federal managers, was not de-
ceived by the ruse, but declared that Jack
sons real movement was toward Richmond
Everybody was undeceived when, June %,
Mcclellan hastily telegraphed that his pickets
were being driven in north of the Chicka-
hominy.
Until then, day after day, it had been tele-
graphed to Washington, "AIl quiet in
the army of the Potomac" So bent on
having additions to his army had Nc
Clellan been that June 10 he had tele-
graphed Secretary Stanton, advising
that considerable force be detached from
HaIleckls western department and sent to
him Long before this, early in March, Nc
Clellan had been relieved from duty as COM
manler of all the armies of the United States,
and made commander only of the army of
the Potomac. This was done, it was claimed
by President Lincoln, in order that the
general might give all his time to the war in
Virginia Mcclellan regarded il as humiha-
ton, and says: 1.-THE order proved to be one
of the steps taken to tie my hands in order to
secure Tie lhiiuft vi tle approaching CALI
paign." He believed that it emanated from
Secretary Stanton, and was issued out Of
spite.
There was at that time no commander in
chief OF all the armies There were three in
dependent departments, with Mcclellan in
the east or Potomac department, Fremont in
the central one, called the mountain depart
ment, and Halleck over that west of the
Mississippi, called the department of the

From the time he made the brilliant cavalry
dash around the army of the Potomac till the
